Kevin Praveen has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 24.85, set at Shaastra Cube Open 2016, puts him in the top 52.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 7,906th in India. Across 10 competitions since September 2014, he has put 89 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 5 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 1:11.00 in September 2014 to 24.85, a 65% improvement. Kevin has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% of everyone who has ever competed.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
